local file_get_contents

Great, thank you very much...I'm trying to use file_get_contents but with a local file, ie instead of putting a web address ( http://www.ozzu.com ) To a local address ( C://Windows/carpeta/index.html/ )

You can? the thing is I'm trying to send HTML formatted mails from PHP but with the PHPMailer () I limit myself to the limit of characters in the address bar...if there is any way you know to use a local file with file_get_contents or something similar I would be very useful
